Congress just passed (and the President is about to sign into law) new legislation to change how graduates repay student loans - now the amount you pay back will be based on how much you earn. The "College Cost Reduction and Access Act" also gives more money for Pell Grants and reduces interest rates on loans. This is a great piece of legislation -- why didn't someone think to do this before? I mean, how long have people been paying back student loans? Well, regardless of its timing, I hope this act really does help people making those payments. Check The Red & Black on Thursday for more information...
More surprising than this legislation (well, for me, anyway) is today's feature in the AJC's Travel section. This is one of my favorite sections of the Sunday paper; I really enjoy reading about interesting places to visit and looking at the pictures they provide. But I wasn't expecting to see an article my dad wrote about golfing in France. He went to France in July on his honeymoon and told me about his golfing "adventures," but I didn't expect to see it in the paper.
Story behind the story: I asked him earlier today if he had any articles coming up this week, expecting to hear him mention something more related to his health care beat -- you know, a hospital's attempts to improve long-term patient care, health care insurance changes, something along those lines. When he said he had an article about golfing in the Travel section, I laughed and said, "No, really, Dad -- do you have any stories coming up in the paper?" I was slightly caught off guard when he told me he wasn't kidding. I immediately checked the AJC's website and sure enough, it was there. Check it out! (shameless plugging, I know, but at least I'm admitting it.)
